Great pictures!!!

 

Awesome story, great read and now I have to see if I can the book... Cheers. Awesome pics BTW

 

Great journey and superb photographs

Thanks for sharing

 

Enjoyed reading this thread. Will be buying the book 'Moonwatch Only'. Thank you for sharing.

 

Perfect pictures,
but i prefer the first rhodium sprrdy with the tritium dial.

 

This seems like a sign! I just read your original post last night. This morning, your Apollo XI anniversary watch appears for sale! Go get ‘em!

Thanks to the bump I got to read this. I just received my 3572.50 this past Tuesday, and I love the display case-back with the decorated 1863 movement. Almost exactly the same age as the OP’s watch.

 

So nice in rhodium but in gilt is also ok

 

It's hard these days not to choose my Speedy Tuesday but the iconic SMP-dial's look will never get old... !

 

I’m on the lookout for a 3592.50 and have noticed earlier versions seem to go by reference number 345.0808. Is there any difference between these two? I figured I would ask here since there seems to be quite a few experts in this thread.

 

Wow, great read, thanks!

 

Sorry for the late reply

345.0808 = numbered, "Apollo XI" from roughly '85-'87, Copper-colored 863, 1147/805 bracelet.
3352 B = same but with Omega's new model identification codes (1988).
3592 B & 3592.50 numbered ("A-#"), gilt 863 and 1479/xxx bracelet ('88-'90)
3592.50 now unnumbered ('90-95')

There's also a batch made for Italy - "25th Apollo XI" (1994).

 

Recently picked up a Speedmaster (3572.50) too. I stare at the movement for at least half a minute every day that I wear it. How many other watches would cause their owner to do that?

 

Nice shots!

 

1st-world problems ...with two Speedmasters to choose from... but for this SpeedyTuesday I went with the classic look!

Let's see what Friday has in store for us, once the Swatch-Group's Time2Move finally lets the Press go to the press...

 

The 321 Ed White will be my third Speedmaster but until it lands, I'm thoroughly enjoying my first

 

Nice shots, good job !

 

How far can you run in 14 seconds? <XIII>
